SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Dec 15– Field
organizers hired by Mike
Bloomberg 2020, Inc. who
worked but were not paid
overtime have sued.
Repeatedly.
On October
1 U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York
Chief Magistrate Judge Gabriel
W. Gorenstein held a
proceeding. Inner City Press
covered it.
Judge Gorenstein
is also the Magistrate in
other litigation against the
Bloomberg campaign.
He ruled that

parallel, once a decision is
issued on the motion for a
stay in the other case.
This one is Sinclair
v. Mike
Bloomberg
2020, Inc.,

(Wood /
Gorenstein)
On December 15,
Judge Gorenstein held another
proceeding, about discovery.
The contents of some email
boxes have been produced.
After argument, Judge
Gorenstein told the parties it
was not a slam dunk either way
and they might want to
compromise until the District
Judge in this case, Judge
Swain, rules on the pending
motion: that is, whether they
can stipulate to conduct
discovery in the next few
months such that there would
not be a need to have the
motion for a stay decided. He
asked for a letter by January
15.
This case is Wood
v. Mike Bloomberg 2020, Inc.,
20-cv-2489 (Swain /
Gorenstein)
